With the widespread use of wireless networks,
securing Data transmission becomes a basic requirement. The
IEEE 802.11 standard which defines wireless networks
communication, has proposed in its second version, IEEE
802.11b, a new protocol to offer some wired-like security
services, such as: data privacy, data integrity, and
authentication. In this paper, we analyze Wired Equivalent
Privacy(WEP) security holes and we propose an improvement
over WEP which achieves, in addition to its security goals,
another security service which is replay detection.
